Second studio album from Ween. “The Pod” was originally recorded in 1990 at the band’s apartment of the same name in Solebury Township, PA. It’s a murky, sludge filled effort that is bound to confound some and please plenty of others. Some may say it’s a “difficult” album that moves at a snail’s pace, but there are touches of 70s Prog Rock excellence buried amongst the Fuzz; moments of brilliance that still stand up today. The bedroom thrash of “Sketches of Winkle,” “Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese” (a precursor to “Pushing Up Daisies“) and the Dylan-esque “Sorry Charlie” are all good places to start. Twenty-three tracks in all. Reissued on limited edition ‘fuscus’ brown & cream colored double vinyl pressing.
